HISTORY OF THE 
324th FIELD ARTILLERY 

ORGANIZATION AND SERVICE 

The organization of the 324th Field Artillery as a horse 
drawn regiment began on August 22nd, 1917, the day of 
the arrival of Colonel T. Q. Ashburn, the first and only 
regimental commander. 

August 30th, eighty-five officers of the Regular Army, 
National Army and Officers' Reserve Corps were assigned 
to the regiment, which was part of the 158th F. A. 
Brigade, 83rd Division. Additional officers were assigned 
from time to time thereafter. 

A Medical Department of four officers and twelve 
enlisted men were attached to this regiment per verbal 
order Commanding General. This department was later 
increased, and in addition, dentists, assistants, and a 
chaplain were added to it. Enlisted men began to arrive 
September 3rd and continued to arrive in increasing 
numbers until the regiment was nearly full. It was never 
up to full strength until a few days before its departure 
for France, when somewhat over two hundred men joined 
it from a Kentucky draft. 

The organization board of the 83rd Division had as a 
member Colonel T. Q. Ashburn representing all the 
artillery, and as he was a native Ohioan, in the selection 
of the territory from which to draw the drafted men he 
chose central Ohio, including Columbus, Springfield, etc., 
for the reason that primarily he did not wish men from 
his own section of the State (the Southern), whose parents 

11 



12 HISTORY OF THE 324th FIELD ARTILLERY 

would seek personal favors from an acquaintance. He 
did not wish the regiment to be composed of all city men, 
and he sought the happy medium whereby to secure for 
the regiment men representing all the trades and pro- 
fessions of both city and country. As an artillery regiment, 
he knew, he would require the services of everything from 
experts of every class to manual laborers. The reputation 
made by the regiment justified the choice of central Ohio 
as the place to get everything necessary. 

The problem of organizing a regiment under such 
unusual conditions, i. e., of drafted men, and untrained 
officers, was one that caused the commanding officer 
many sleepless nights. Strange as it may seem to the 
regiment now, there were indications from the very first 
that there was going to be little disciplinary trouble. 
Groups of the first men to arrive were somewhat awed 
by the fact that they had been drafted; they had been 
given every possible piece of advice; and they arrived 
with all sorts and conditions of clothing, and, what was 
better for them and the country, they had steeled them- 
selves to endure a number of hardships they were never 
to encounter in camp. Arriving at night, in a rainstorm, 
as many did, finding some one waiting for them, a place 
to sleep, and warm food, prepared them for the belief 
that some one was there to make them as comfortable 
as possible. 

It was a wise provision of the War Department to send 
them in small groups at first; for the reason that the men 
got more individual attention from their officers, had 
time to stabilize, and had a cheery front and a kind word 
for the next fellows; so that the later arrivals, looking 
around, saw that there was nothing to fear in this sudden 
transition from comfortable homes to camps; no martinets 
to browbeat them; but a group of officers who made it their 
business to see that they became of the utmost value to 
their country in the shortest possible time. 

The poHcy of the commanding officer firmly impressed 
upon all his officers, was that ''leading is better than 



ORGANIZATION 13 

driving," and he never departed from that policy; nor 
did he allow any one in the regiment to do so; although 
he also impressed upon them that the '^velvet glove 
carried an iron hand." He initiated and carried through 
a policy of making officers and men gain mutual 
respect and friendship. By the judicious application 
of praise for worthy effort, the encouragement to work 
for promotion, the inculcation of the respect due to men 
who had won their chevrons; a very careful selection of 
these men and an unyielding support of them ; by personal 
talks and warnings to delinquents; by explanations of 
what was really meant by esprit and discipline, he 
distributed a leaven throughout ofl&cers and men that, 
through their intelligent appreciation of the ideals sought, 
resulted ere long in establishing a regiment that was 
destined not only to carry off all the honors of Camp 
Sherman, but to be selected to march to and across the 
Rhine, on account of its marching and fighting ability. 
The drills, exercises and operations were designed primarily 
to get the men in good shape physically, to lead them 
along the arduous path of military knowledge by suc- 
cessive steps; gradually assuming such a phase of training 
that practically no new thing developed in its actual 
service at the front that had not been treated of ex- 
haustively during the training period. Especial atten- 
tion was paid to teaching the value of cleanliness, mental, 
moral and physical, and men made to feel that they 
themselves were the only ones who could prepare them- 
selves in this way for the High Destiny which Fate had 
in store for them. 

The lack, for a long time, of any material whatsoever 
with which instruction could be given, was more than 
compensated for by the constructive mechanical genius 
of officers and enlisted men. To suggest an idea was to 
see it embodied over-night into concrete form so nearly 
accurate as to fulfill all practical purposes of instruction. 
The evolution of a gun from a piece of stove pipe and 
paper board into a cannon complete with mechanical 



14 HISTORY OF THE 324th FIELD ARTILLERY 

devices for teaching pointing and aiming, loading and 
firing, and the creation of instruments for tire control 
and direction, are only samples of results. 

The regiment was particularly fortunate in its assign- 
ment of a French officer. Captain Jean Tommy-Martin — 
a gallant soldier of proven mettle, a most efficient artillery 
man, and a lovable French gentleman, whom all admired 
and respected. It was a distinct disappointment that 
he was not allowed to accompany the regiment to the 
front. A large share of the success of the preliminary 
instruction was due to him; and he was ably seconded by 
Major H. L. Morse. Lieutenant Jupin, who joined us at 
Bain-de-Bretagne, was another type of French officer who 
appealed to the regiment, while our Lieutenant Andre 
Weiner won a place in the hearts of officers and men by his 
quiet effectiveness and genial disposition that time will not 
pfface 

The regimental esprit, the lack of cliques amongst the 
officers, the harmonious relations of men and officers, 
was a cause of continual comment by all observers, of 
the most envious and favorable kind. Not only did the 
regiment win encomiums from all inspectors, and the 
commanding generals at Camp Sherman, but it carries an 
unbroken record of favorable comment. 

During the absence of Major-General Glenn, com- 
manding 83rd Division, for a period in excess of three 
months, a comparative table of merit was kept by 
Division Headquarters for his information. Upon his 
return the regiment was informed by his aide-de-camp 
that it stood first in the division in this comparative 
test for this period. Various elements entered into the 
tests, such as general health, general cleanliness, condition 
of barracks, bearing of officers and men, development of 
esprit, discipline, competitions of all kinds, etc. Diiring 
this period the regiment had been reorganized as a 
motor drawn regiment, with an ordnance officer and 
detachment. 

The captain of the ''Leicestershire," an English naval 



ORGANIZATION 15 

officer, wrote that ''in all my experience of transporting 
troops, this regiment is the best behaved and best dis- 
ciplined.'^ 

At Borden, England, the colonel commanding the 
Royal Field Artillery there, said, ''Your troops act like 
veteran soldiers." 

At Bain-de-Bretagne, France, by their courteous bearing 
and consideration of all types of humanity, they so 
endeared themselves to the hearts of the community 
that people openly wept upon their departure, the 
municipal council officially thanked them, and, when 
peace was announced, gave three cheers for the 324th 
Field Artillery. The regiment gave the town four 
thousand francs for homeless French orphans. Here the 
regiment was again tentatively informed that it might be 
reorganized on a horse drawn basis, but no decision was 
reached. 

At Coetquidan the regiment finished its firing course 
in two days less time than the other two of the brigade, 
and the brigade was pronounced the best trained that 
had ever been there, by the officers in command. 

During the first onslaught of October 8th, at Cote de 
Talou, the infantry brigade commanders reported that 
the barrage was extraordinarily fine, and the division 
commander told the commanding officer that he had 
heard nothing but the most favorable reports upon the 
work of the artillery. 

The work at the Cote de Roches called forth the ad- 
miring comment of the infantry that "those heavy boys 
have the guts, by God'^* and unstinted praise from those 
men and officers who had been protected by our accurate 
fire. Officially it was reported that we had annihilated 
a machine gun nest, causing terrific havoc, and an aero- 
plane above dropped a note saying that the heavies 
were literally demolishing the trench system at which 
they were firing. 

When the commanding officer reported to the 3rd 
Corps Concimander near Montfaucon October 30th, 



16 HISTORY OF THE 324th FIELD ARTILLERY 

1918, he said, ''We are very glad to have you with us. 
We hear of your fine work on the other side of the Meuse.'^ 

The way the regiment pulled out of the Bois-de-Cunel 
and reached Velosnes, thence into Ecurey, moved the 
chief of staff to characterize its work as ''most remark- 
able.'^ 

The retaliatory fire delivered by the regiment at 
Ecurey, November 11th, 1918, after all but the Boche 
had ceased firing, was described by the advance guard 
commander. Brigadier General Winans, as "the most 
effective piece of artillery work he had seen during the 
war." 

At the first inspection on the march to the Rhine, 
Major General Haan characterized it as "a fine regiment 
which makes a fine appearance.'' 

It won a commendatory order from Major General 
Lassiter on the completion of the march, and the personal 
congratulations of General John J. Pershing, Commander 
in Chief, and Major General Hines, 3rd Corps Com- 
mander, at the inspection and review held by General 
Pershing in Germany.

so obviously animated the troops under your command. 
The 322nd F. A., the 323rd F. A., and the 324th F. A., 
in their soldierly bearing, in the appearance of their 
mounts, of their tractors, and of their equipment general- 
ly, made a showing of which they may well be proud. 
The light regiments in passing in review stirred to en- 
thusiasm all who watched them. The 324th regiment 
reached all the expectations of the Commander-in-Chief 
and of the Division Commander in that so soon after 
being motorized and under such unfavorable conditions 
they had their tractors and guns on the reviewing ground 
ready for inspection and brought to such a high standard 
of cleanliness and obvious efficiency.

''Headquarters Thirty-second Division 
American Expeditionary Forces 
Rengsdorf, Germany, 28th March, 1919. 

General Orders, 
No. 23. 

1. It is with sincere pleasure that the Division Com- 
mander pubHshes to the command, the following letter 
from the Commander-in-Chief: 

"American Expeditionary Forces" 
Office of the Commander-in-Chief 

France, March 24th, 1919. 

Major General William Lassiter, 
Commanding 32nd Division, 
American E. F. 

My dear General Lassiter: 

Please extend to the officers and men of the 32nd 
Division my sincere compliments upon their appearance 
and upon the splendid condition of the artillery and 
transportation at the review and inspection on March 
15th. In fact, the condition of your command was what 
would be expected of a division with such a splendid 
fighting record. 

After training for several months following its arrival 
in February, 1918, it entered the line in Alsace and held 
this sector until the time of the Aisne-Marne offensive, 
when it moved to that active front. On July 30th, it 
entered the line on the Ourcq, and in the course of its 
action captured Cierges, Bellevue Farm and the Bois de la 
Planchette. The attack was resumed on August 1st, 
the division pushing ahead until it crossed the Vesle and 
captured the town of Fismes. On August 28th it again 
entered the line and launched attacks Which resulted 



ORGANIZATION 21 

in the capture of Juvigny at the cost of severe casualties. 
During the Meuse-Argonne offensive the 32nd Division 
entered the Une on September 30th and by its persistence 
in that sector it penetrated the Kriemhilde Stellung, 
taking Romagne and following the enemy to the north- 
eastern edge of the Bois de Bantheville. On November 
8th, the division took up the pursuit of the enemy east 
of the Meuse until the time when hostilities were 
suspended. 

Since the signing of the Armistice the 32nd Division 
has had the honor to act as a part of the Army of Occupa- 
tion. For the way in which all ranks have performed 
their duties in this capacity, I have only the warmest 
praise and approval. The pride of your officers and men, 
justified by such a record will insure the same high morale 
which has been present in the division during its stay in 
France. I want each man to know my appreciation of 
the work he has done and of the admiration in which he 
is held by the rest of his comrades in the American 
Expeditionary Forces. 

Sincerely yours, 

John J. Pershing." 

2. This order will be read to the troops at the first 
formation following its receipt and will be posted upon 
bulletin boards. 

Wm. Lassiter, 

Major General, Commanding. 

The total casualties, thirty-five (35), were out of all 
proportion — abnormally small — to the dangers under- 
gone; and the regiment at no time had a large amount of 
sickness. 

It was finally motorized and equipped in Germany, 
during April, 1919. The men by this time were driving 
motors like horses, and horses like a Hudson twin six. 
But right glad were they to get rid of mange and manure, 
and take oil and the smell of gasoline instead. 



SERVICE 

The regiment embarked for Camp Mills, from Camp 
Sherman, Ohio, June 3rd -4th, 1918, and from Camp 
Mills, N. Y., it embarked on the steamship ^^Leicester- 
shire,^' June 11th, 1918, sailing, as part of a large convoy, 
for England, June 12th, 1918, arriving there June 23rd, 
1918, disembarking at Liverpool, and proceeded by train 
to Borden, England, where it went into rest camp, 
remaining not twenty-four hours. It proceeded by train 
to Southampton, embarked and crossed the Channel 
to Havre, disembarking there June 27th, 1918, with- 
out a single man A. W. 0. L., a unique and remark- 
able record. It stayed in rest camp for three days, and 
then proceeded for Bain-le-Bretagne, where it billeted 
until August 13th, 1918. While there it received its 
first consignment of six (6) 155 mm. howitzers. On 
the 13th it marched to Coetquidan, for artillery practice, 
and completed same September 21st, 1918. While at 
Coetquidan it was completely equipped as a horsed 
regiment; and outfitted with necessary material. This 
was the third change in organization, as at this time the 
regiment was organized as a motor drawn outfit. 

The organization of specialists was as follows at this 
time :

The regiment proceeded by trains to Souilly, France, 
and marched overland to Bois de Hesse, advanced 
elements reaching there, September 26th, 1918. The 
regimental commander acted as assistant to the artillery 
commander of the reinforced artillery brigade supporting 
the 91st Division on September 26th, 1918, and on the 
27th the regiment moved into position. It remained 
there until October 3rd, 1918, in support of the 32nd 
Division, when it passed to the 29th Division, and on 
the night of October 3rd-4th moved into camp at the 
Bois de Nixeyville. From then until October 7th, 1918, 
it was occupied in going into position east of the Meuse, 
north of Verdun, at the Cote de Talou, and in preparing 
for attack. During all this time it was under shell fire. 
It was now acting with the 18th French Division, 17th 
Army Corps. 

It attacked October 8th from the Cote de Talou, and 
on October 9th one battalion moved forward to the Cote 
des Roches, beyond Samogneux, going into action that 
night. The other two battalions continued firing on the 
9th, and on the 10th of October moved into position at 
the Gote des Roches. The entire regiment remained 



SERVICE 25 

there till the night of October 29th -30th. During this 
time it was continuously under shell fire, and continuously- 
attacking. It supported the 18th French Division, the 
29th U. S. Division, and the 26th U. S. Division, and 
covered the entrance of the 79th Division into position, 
relieving the 29th. On the night October 29th -30th, 
two battalions moved towards Cinq Freres, and on the 
night October 30th -3 1st, the remaining battalion moved 
out. On October 31st the regiment proceeded to recross 
the Meuse and marched to Bois de Montfaucon, reporting 
as divisional artillery of the 32nd Division, remaining 
with it until ordered home. On November 1st the 
regiment moved to Cierges, thence into the Bois de 
Beuge, thence to Bois de la Pultiere, thence across the 
Meuse at Dun, thence to Velosnes, thence into position 
at Bois d'Ecurey November 10th, 1918. It again at- 
tacked on the morning of November 11th, and fired 
retaliation fire after the armistice was announced, up 
to 10:25 A.M. being the last shots delivered by the 32nd 
Division in the war. 

The horses were so depleted at Velosnes, due to the 
constant fire under which they had been, and the con- 
tinuous pursuit of the enemy, that it was necessary to 
demobilize one battalion, and leave it there. Out of 
957 horses, only about 517 remained. At Bois d'Ecurey 
about 600 horses were received, and on November 16th, 
the regiment started on the march across the Rhine, 
billeting at Jametz. Thence by stages it advanced into 
Germany, crossing the Sauer River at Echternach, De- 
cember 1st, 1918, and crossing the Rhine at Engers, 
December 14th, 1918. It remained in Germany to the 
west and north of the river Rhine until April 22nd, 1919, 
when it began its return to the States via Brest. 

The details of its activities are included in the opera- 
tions report attached hereto. From January 1st, 1919, 
to the 22nd day of April, 1919, it remained as part of the 
Army of Occupation with the same stations as indicated 
in the operations report.

of Captain Coombe as Adjutant, the relief of Captain 
Coombe at his request, as Adjutant, his appointment to 
command Headquarters Company and the relief of 
Captain Norton as commander. Headquarters Company, 
and his appointment as Regimental Adjutant. Captain 
R. B. Lawrence, Supply Officer, was discharged on account 
of physical disability incurred in line of duty, and Captain 
B. J. Haggard was appointed supply officer. 

From Germany the regiment proceeded to Brest, 
France, where it remained in camp for nearly two weeks, 
when it embarked on the U. S. S. SEATTLE for New 
York. During the voyage there was every effort made 
to entertain all aboard by frequent band concerts, movies, 
boxing, etc. Through the courtesy of the ship's officers, 
the regiment was enabled to publish a last souvenir, 
called ^'The Seasick Seattler." This paper was written, 
edited and published by enlisted men, and was filled with 
jokes and humorous reminiscences, together with a lead- 
ing article herewith reproduced. 

324th GOING BACK 

ON U. S. S. SEATTLE 
COL. ASHBURN TAKING HOME BEST F. A. REGIMENT 

IN A. E. F. 

With the band vigorously pounding out jazz well 
worthy of the occasion and with Brest, the city famed for 



30 HISTORY OF THE 324th FIELD ARTILLERY 

its mud and army regulations, fast toppling behind the 
horizon, the 324th Field Artillery Regiment under Colonel 
T. Q. Ashburn at last started its long promised and 
anxiously awaited homeward voyage aboard the U. S. S. 
SEATTLE, May 10th, 1919. Almost eleven months to 
the day since the 324th had left God's Country behind to 
give the bothersome Fritz his full mete of strafing — and 
from a secret source comes the information that the 
Captain of the ship has solemnly promised a view^^of the 
Statue of Liberty by the middle of June at least. 

Many things have come to pass since the 324th be- 
came one of the vital organizations of the A. E. F. What 
if brass foot rails aren't quite the rage they were in the 
good old peace days? What difference does it make if 
steaks are a luxury and certain old friends say ^'fini'^ 
when fluids noted for their lubrication of the vocal cords 
crop out in casual conversations. It's still God's Country, 
and it means home and sundry other things which are 
not furnished in France by the best of Y. M. C. A.'s. 

And they're sure to bear with an outfit even if it does 
register its full share of pride and satisfaction when it 
strikes good, solid American soil once more with the 
knowledge that it bade farewell to France with its work 
well done. 

A term of duty in several of the real active sectors of 
the front followed by the distinction of being one of the 
comparatively few organizations selected to march into 
Germany and pass beyond the Rhine to hold the bridge- 
head would make the most modest and retiring organiza- 
tion slightly self-respecting. 

Then, too, it isn't every outfit that can be brought home 
by a colonel who wears the gold chevron on his right arm — 
Colonel Ashburn became entitled to wear one shortly 
before the armistice when wounded while leading the 
regiment into action near Cunel, France, and who also 
was presented with a Croix de Guerre. He organized the 
regiment, brought it overseas, and is now taking it back, 



SERVICE 31 

fortunately with a large percentage of the men who came 
over with him. 

It's the best bet of the season too that fond mothers 
won't have to gaze anxiously at underfed faces of sol- 
dier sons after they have debarked from the SEATTLE, 
*^for putting it out'' is one of the rare accomphshments 
of the kitchen — no galley force. It is certainly a con- 
trast to the so-called food which was furnished when we 
traveled in the other direction. 

At any rate let's throw modesty to the winds and 
admit that Captain Blakely and Commander Culbertson 
with the best crew in the Navy, are taking home Colonel 
Ashburn and the best Field Artillery Regiment in the 
A. E. F." 

The regimental commander, on behalf of the ofl&cers 
and men, wrote an appreciation of the courtesies extended 
aboard the ship to the regiment, and sent it to Captain 
Blakely. In reply Captain Blakely sent the following 
letter; 

"U. S. S. SEATTLE 

At sea, 21 May 1919. 

From: Commanding Officer. 

To: Colonel T. Q. Ashburn, 324th F. A., U. S. A. 

Subject : Repatriation of American Expeditionary Forces 
on U. S. S. S. SEATTLE. 

1. I am in receipt of your communication of this date 
in which you express for the detachment under your 
command, your appreciation of the satisfactory trans- 
portation conditions on board this vessel during the re- 
turn voyage from France, now nearing completion. 

2. Permit me to express my gratification on my own ac- 
count and in behalf of the officers and the ship's company 
of the SEATTLE for your very generous observations 
and expressions as to the treatment accorded you. There 



32 HISTORY OF THE 324th FIELD ARTILLERY 

have been many discomforts which we would have been 
very glad to have had otherwise. Some due to the inau- 
guration of the system of employment of our armored 
cruisers for the return of our troops from France; to the 
installation and experimental trial of improvised con- 
veniences; to the crowded quarters and small deck space 
of a type of vessel not constructed for troop transport 
and carry more than double her normal complement. 

3. Our warm feeling of comradeship for the fellow branch 
of the armed forces of our Country would alone have in- 
spired us to make your stay on board more than welcome, 
but added to this, I am pleased to say, the cheerful, 
willing, co-operative, and soldierly manner in which the 
officers and troops have assisted and done more than their 
part wherever possible to help the ship's company and 
to disregard the unavoidable discomforts has made our 
task many times lighter and our association one to always 
be recalled with pleasure. The traditions of cordial co- 
operation between the two military services has again 
been evinced in a gratifying manner. 

4. At the time of completion of the trip and separation, 
I take occasion to wish to yourself and your command, 
every success and good luck for their future. 

J. R. Y. Blakely." 

Safely arrived at New York, the regiment was disem- 
barked and marched to Camp Mills, where it remained 
a week. During this time the men were saddened by 
the death by accident of Assistant Band Leader Homer 
McLean, whose clarinet playing had been a soiu^ce of 
much amusement to all. He was a master of its vagaries, 
and, while an expert musician, manipulated his instru- 
ment in such a fashion, when desired, as to convulse hiis 
audience. Groups of men were here separated from the 
regiment, and sent for muster out to various camps, and 
the realization that the old 324th was really breaking up 
brought home the fact that the friendships formed under 
battle and camp conditions were such that they will ever

endure, and many was the catch in the voice as we bade 
them good-bye. 

At the end of the week, the remainder, some 1200 
officers and men, proceeded in three sections to Columbus, 
Ohio, where, at the earnest solicitation of the Wives and 
Mothers' Committees, the War Department had ordered 
a parade. 

A welcoming committee met the trains, and great was 
the joy of the regiment at meeting their own ^^home 
folks.'' The parade was a very hot and disagreeable 
finale, but the cheering throngs crowding the streets, the 
warm welcome accorded the marching troops, the de- 
licious buffet luncheon served after the parade, repaid 
the men for their discomfort by the feeling that they 
were giving pleasure to those who loved them. 

Arrived at Camp Sherman late the same night, Satur- 
day, the men were physically examined, assigned to bar- 
racks, and on Monday the work of muster out began, 
being completed on June 4th, 1919, one year and one 
day from the start on the long hard struggle which car- 
ried them from Camp Sherman to and through England, 
France, Luxemburg and Germany, and finally brought 
them ^^From Beyond the Rhine to the Banks of the 
Scioto." 

Up to the last moment the esprit remained excellent, 
and the regiment separated with mutual respect existing 
between officers and men, and a desire that through the 
coming years many opportunities for reunion should 
occur, when all together they could talk over, and live 
over, the history of ''The regiment without fear and 
without reproach." 



Headquarters, 324th Field Artillery 

U. S. S. Seattle, May 20, 1919. 
Officers and Men of the 324th Field Artillery, 

'^Mes Enfants": 

You have almost finished your duty as soldiers, and are 
entitled to and will receive the homage due to brave men. 

Drawn from all fields of human endeavor, you have 
adapted yourselves to unusual discipline; have sunk 
your identity to become a part of a machine; have 
learned to exert yourselves individually as parts of a 
whole, and have made of that machine a formidable 
fighting force of unusual ability. 

All honor to you! 

I, who have seen you develop, feel a pride in your 
achievements, a glory in your record, that words can ill 
express. 

You have faced privation, danger, death in every con- 
ceivable form, and you have never faltered. 

You have performed almost humanly impossible tasks. 

You have won unstinted praise from every General 
under whom you have served — and the special commen- 
dation of the Commander-in-Chief, General Pershing. 

You will carry home with you the proud consciousness 
of duty well done; the soldiers' greatest reward; and 
an unblemished regimental record of efficient service, 
joyfully rendered for the sake of your Country! 

You will now become a large factor in our body politic. 
By adopting as your own the regimental motto: ''WE 
AIM HIGH,'' you will continue to serve faithfully in 
peace as in war. 

Whatever your estate may be in the future, or mine, 
I wish you to understand that there will abide forever in 

34 



SERVICE 35 

my heart a love for you, a pride in you, a glory in your 
achievements, that time will only enhance; and while 
I rejoice with you in your return to peaceful pm*suits, 
my heart is heavy at the thought of the disintegration 
of the regiment of which I am so well content to have 
been the commander; a regiment ** without fear and 
without reproach."

Colonel, 324th F, A,, Commanding. 



REPORT OF OPERATIONS 
Headquarters 324th F. A. (Heavy) 

A. P. O. 734, 4th February, 1919. 

From: The Commanding Officer, 324th F. A. 

To: The Adjutant General, U. S. A. (Through 

Channels) 
Subject: Report of operations of 324th F. A. from June 

4th, 1918, to December 31st, 1918. 

1. I submit the following report covering the operations 
of the 324th F. A., U. S. A., from June 4th, 1918, to 
include the close of the year. 

2. Pursuant to instructions from the War Department, 
the regiment (which had been organized at Camp Sher- 
man, Ohio, beginning with my arrival August 22nd, 
1917), left Camp Sherman for Camp Mills, New York. 
We remained in camp there until June 11th, when the 
regiment embarked on the S.S. '^Leicestershire" and 
saHed June 12th for Liverpool, England, arriving there 
June 24th, and moved by train to a rest camp at Borden, 
England. Remained there approximately twenty-four 
hours and moved by train to Southampton, where we 
embarked and crossed the English Channel, arriving at 
La Havre the next morning, going to a rest camp. We 
remained a few days at this rest camp, and thence pro- 
ceeded by train to Bain-de-Bretagne, where we remained 
in billets till August 13th, thence marched overland to 
the artillery range at Coetquidan, remaining there till 
September 23rd, 1918. All this time was spent in very 
intensive training. 

3. Under instructions from Headquarters 158th F. A. 
Brigade, the regiment was ordered to proceed to the 
vicinity of Bar-le-Duc, by train, there to receive further 
orders. The Colonel and Adjutant proceeded by auto- 

37 



38 HISTORY OF THE 324TH FIELD ARTILLERY 

mobile to Bar-de-Luc, where orders were received to 
proceed to Vraincourt and to establish Headquarters. 
From there the Colonel commanding was directed to 
proceed to join Brigade Headquarters at Hill 210 with 
the Headquarters of the artillery supporting the 91st 
Division. He arrived there on the evening of September 
25th, 1918, remaining there during the operations of the 
Fifth Army Corps the 26th of September. The Opera- 
tions Officer and Reconnaissance Officers, together with 
the Radio and Telephone Officers and Regimental Head- 
quarters arrived at Vraincourt September 26th. The 
head of the regiment arrived at Vraincourt September 
27th and on that day Field Order No. 1 was issued. 

See Appendix ''A." 

On September 27th, the regiment began to go into 
position in the Bois de Hesse, north of Parois, which was 
under shell fire; and completed its dispositions for firing 
to defend the line Vauquois-Haucourt, supporting the 
32nd Division. 

September 28th-29th there was considerable aeroplane 
activity on both sides, and under personal orders from 
the Division Commander the Colonel made reconnais- 
sances to the front, investigating routes of advance. 
Battalion reconnaissances were also made. September 
30th and October 1st were marked by aeroplane activity 
and gas alarms; one casualty during the day from 
aeroplane bullet. 

On October 2nd, the regiment remained in position 
under considerable aeroplane activity; one casualty from 
hand grenade. The permanent Brigade Commander 
had been assigned to the command of the 55th Artillery 
Brigade and on October 1st, Colonel T. Q. Ashburn 
reassumed command of the 158th F. A. Brigade, which he 
had organized and commanded from August 22, 1917, to 
June 1, 1918, consisting of the 322nd, 323rd, 324th Field 
Artillery, 308th Trench Mortar Battery and 308th 
Ammunition Train; retaining also the command of the 
324th F. A. On the afternoon of October 2nd, a warning 



REPORT OF OPERATIONS 39 

telegram was received directing him to prepare to march 
the brigade the next day and report with it to the 29th 
Infantry Division. The regiment remained in the Bois de 
Hesse and as a part of the 158th F. A. Brigade, under my 
command, moved out of the Bois de Hesse at 8 P.M., 
October 3rd, and by orders of the Division Conmiander, 
29th Division, was placed at the disposition of the Chief of 
Artillery, 17th French Army Corps, to whom I reported 
for instructions, being directed to move into position at 
Camp Gallene, near Nixeyville, where it arrived in the 
early morning October 4th. The day was spent in 
reconnaissance, selection of positions, etc., all under shell 
fire, and consultation with Corps and Divisional Com- 
manders of the 17th French Corps, 18th Division and 29th 
Division respectively. In the evening, 6:00 P.M., all 
batteries began moving into position for attack in accord- 
ance with orders from Headquarters 18th French Division, 
October 5th, 1918. See Appendix II. The Command of 
the regiment was turned over to Lieut. Col. H. L. Morse 
on October 5th, 1918, and he, by my orders moved the 
regiment into position east of the Meuse, north of Verdun, 
at the Cote de Talou. On October 6th the day was spent 
under fire, in bringing up ammunition, improving posi- 
tions, getting the Supply and Headquarters Company 
and the horse lines established, as well as establishing 
liaison with the infantry brigade to be supported. On 
October 7th there was intermittent artillery activity and 
all batteries registered. Beginning at 5:00 A.M. October 
8th, the regiment, in conjunction with the balance of the 
Brigade, took part in the offensive of the 17th French 
Army Corps, 18th French Division and one brigade of the 
29th Division, in accordance with plan for use of Artillery. 
See Appendix III. On this day and the next, the artillery 
firing was exceedingly heavy, and although the regiment 
was in the same position as the 323rd and one battalion 
of the 322nd in which casualties occurred, did not suffer. 
Approximately 8500 shells were fired. The enemy fire 



40 HISTORY OF THE 342TH FIELD ARTILLERY 

was either short or over, and the guns well protected 
behind a crest and by digging in. The infantry advanced 
some seven kilometers, and captured some 1800 prisoners. 
The fighting lasted during the day and the night and the 
attack was resumed at 5:30 A.M., continuing until the 
normal objective had been attained. On October 9th, 
at 11:00 A.M. in compliance with orders from the 17th 
French Corps I turned over the command of the Brigade 
to the permanent Brigade commander, and resumed 
command of the 324th F. A. Separate report of the 
operation of the 158th F. A. Brigade from October 2nd to 
October 9th inclusive, has heretofore been rendered by 
me, to the 17th French Division and the 29th Division, 
and one copy retained in the records of the 158th F. A. 
Brigade. The Division Commander, 29th Division, 
personally assured me that he had heard nothing but 
praise for the artillery during these operations. During 
the 8th, the undersigned had caused reconnaissances to 
be made covering the routes through Samogneux, Cote 
des Roches and Brabant and had made arrangements 
for a move forward. On October 9th, the 1st Battalion, 
under Major Brice, was ordered to a position in the Cote 
des Roches, which it occupied between the Infantry 
advance lines, and the support. On the night of October 
lOth-llth, the undersigned established his P. C. at the 
Cote des Roches and the remaining two battalions moved 
into position there. A counter attack of the enemy was 
repulsed by artillery fire ; the infantry Brigade Comman- 
der reporting himself well pleased by results. The tasks 
assigned the battalions of the regiment during the 10th of 
October are shown in Appendix IV, and are a fair sample 
of the daily work of this Regiment. 

On the 11th the artillery remained in position perform- 
ing its functions as laid down in brigade operations orders 
with these additions: The enemy's fire having become 
exceedingly uncomfortable, at 14:52 Major Brice's bat- 
talion fired a barrage between points 54.22 and 64.23 at 
the rate of one round per gun per minute for five minutes 



REPORT OF OPERATIONS Al 

and Major Nash's battalion a barrage of five minutes 
between points 50.22 and 60.00 at the rate of 40 rounds 
per gun per hour, which was apparently successful in 
reducing the annoying batteries. At 15:48, message re- 
ceived from the infantry stating they were preparing to 
advance from 25 to 26, requesting preparation for barrage. 
Same was made but barrage not called for. Enemy 
activity above normal. From 12 M., 11th October to 
12 M., 12th October the regiment fired 264 rounds at 
enemy batteries and cross roads for interdiction purposes. 
Enemy activity normal. Two (2) men in Battery A 
seriously wounded by explosion of enemy shrapnel, both 
died afterwards. From 12 M. October 12th to 12 M., 
October 13th, the enemy artillery was normal. Casual- 
ties, two men killed and three wounded. Two hundred 
and twenty four rounds fired by regiment, counter battery, 
harassing and retaliation fire. 

October 14th, the Division was preparing for an attack 
and the regiment fired harassing and retaliation fire. 

October 15th, the 29th division attacked (see Appendix 
V), supported by the regiment, which fired 5308 rounds 
on machine gun nests, road crossings ravines, dugouts 
and observatories. One casualty. Enemy artillery 
active. From 12 M. 15th October to 12 M. 16th October 
the regiment again supported an infantry attack, firing 
2323 roimds of preparation, interdiction, harassing fire on 
cross roads, observation points, enemy trenches, dumps 
and machine gun nests. Infantry reported this fire as 
exceedingly effective especially on machine gun nests 
which were destroyed. 

From 12 M. 16th October to 12 M. 17th October, the 
regiment remained in position at Cote des Roches and 
fired 320 rounds on observation posts, roads and enemy 
trenches. Enemy activity nornaal. Some new trenches 
were being dug by the enemy, which were destroyed, 
direct observation being possible. 

From 12 M. 17th October to 12 M. 18th October,^ the 
enemy artillery was active and the regiment sustained 



42 HISTORY OF THE 324TH FIELD ARTILLERY 

two casualties. It fired 554 rounds of interdiction and 
concentration fire on observation posts, roads and enemy 
trenches. The infantry was meeting with very stubborn 
resistance in the Grande Montague area and up to this 
time the total casualties in the 29th Division with whom 
we were working, were 85 officers and 3451 men, of whom 
17 officers and 400 men were killed. 

From 12 M. October 18th to 12 M. 19th October, the 
r„egiment continued its interdiction and concentration on 
the roads, observation posts, trenches and camps, expend- 
ing a total of 524 rounds. 

From 12 M. October 19th to 12 M. 20th October, the 
regiment fired 600 rounds on observation posts, roads 
and fire for adjustment, using enemy barracks as targets 
with direct observation. The enemy artillery activity was 
normal with usual aeroplane reconnaissances and bom- 
bardment of our positions. 

From 12 M. October 20th to 12 M. October 21st, the 
regiment fired 730 rounds interdiction fire, on observation 
posts, roads, and adjustment. Enemy artillery activity 
normal. Orders were received for a combined attack of 
the 29th and 26th Divisions for the purpose of taking 
the ridge of the Bois d'Etrayes. See Appendix VI. The 
29th was now so firmly established on Grand Montague 
in the face of bitter and obstinate resistance, that an 
opportunity presented itself for attacking in an easterly 
direction. The enemy was strongly fortified there, and 
supported by artillery, some of very high power. In a 
reconnaissance on this day I saw a large number of 
abandoned German trench mortars and stumbled on a 
German battery with three guns completely destroyed. 
It had apparently started to pull out, but it was too late. 

From 12 M. October 21st to 12 M. October 22nd. 
Fired 600 rounds at enemy observation posts. Hill 378, 
and an interdiction fire on roads while infantry was 
making disposition for attack. A regiment of light 
artillery belonging to the 26th Division came into position 
on three sides of the 324th F. A. and a battaUon of 



REPORT OF OPERATIONS 43 

Infantry into the same position. The enemy artillery 
was very active. Aeroplane attack during the night. 
From 12 M. October 22nd to 12 M. October 23rd. Enemy 
artillery opened barrage at 5:00 A.M. Very heavy. The 
infantry, 29th and 26th Divisions attacked. The regiment 
fired 7729 rounds of preparation, accompanying, covering 
interdiction and concentrated harassing fire. The in- 
fantry supported reported casualties below normal, and 
aviators reported fire as accurate and effective. 

From 12 M. October 23rd to 12 M. October 24th. 
Continued harassing fire during the day, firing 675 rounds 
during this 24 hours. Five enemy planes flew over us 
about noon, and probably photographed our positions. 
The enemy aeroplanes had begun dropping German 
propaganda. 

From 12 M. October 24th to 12 M. October 25th. 
Fired 519 rounds on enemy areas. Enemy artillery active. 
Shell falling on P. C. and cutting all telephone wires, 
stopping communication for thirty minutes. 

From 12 M. October 25th to 12 M. October 26th. 
626 rounds fired on enemy areas. Enemy artillery 
activity normal. 

From 12 M. October 26th to 12 M. October 27th. 
The infantry attacked to straighten line. Fired 670 
rounds. Enemy active. Casualties one officer and three 
enlisted men. The permanent Brigade Commander 
having been sent to the hospital. Colonel Ashburn 
reassumed command of the brigade, per orders of the 
Division Commander. 

From 12 M. October 27th to 12 M. October 28th. In 
position at Cote des Roches up to 9:30 P. M. October 
28th, when the first and second battalions withdrew 
successively, and marched, over a continuously shell 
swept road toward Bois de Cinq Freres. See Appendix 
VII. A regiment of artillery assigned to the 79th Division 
relieved these two battalions; the third battalion taking 
over the mission of the first and second. Major Brice 
in command of Regiment. The first and second battal- 



44 HISTORY OF THE 324TH FIELD ARTILLERY 

ions, under Major Brice, reached Cinq Freres about 
7 :00 A.M. The third battahon, Major Sackett command- 
ing, remained in position until about 10:00 P.M., October 
29th, when, the relief of the 158th F. A. Brigade by the 
52nd F. A. Brigade having been completed, it moved out 
to Bois de Cinq Freres under shell fire, and arrived there 
early the morning of the 30th. At 8:30 A.M. October 
30th in compliance with orders from the 17th French 
Army Corps, Colonel T. Q. Ashburn, 324th F. A., turned 
over the command of the sector to the Commanding 
General, 52nd F. A. Brigade, and in accordance with 
telephonic instructions from the 29th Division, reported 
in person to the commanding general, 3rd Army Corps, 
for instructions, and was directed to move the brigade 
to the Bois de Montfaucon, reporting in person to the 
Commanding General, 32nd Division, for duty as divi- 
sional artillery. The regiment remained in position at 
Cinq Freres until 2 :00 P.M. 31st October, when it marched 
to the Bois de Madalainville, and bivouacked for the 
night. The Brigade Commander received orders to 
hurry up the artillery which was put in position in the 
Bois de Montfaucon supporting the 32nd Division, on 
the afternoon of November 1st. Colonel Ashburn 
reassumed command, turning over Brigade to permanent 
Brigade Commander. After reconnaissance the next day, 
the regiment was in readiness to proceed to Montfaucon, 
when orders were received to proceed to the Bois de 
Beuge and go into position there. Owing to the roads 
from Cierges being impassable, and the regiment arriving 
there at night, it bivouacked along the road, moving into 
position the next morning. There was normal enemy 
activity both in artillery and aeroplane. 

The regiment remained in position at the Bois de 
Beuge until November 5th, when orders were received 
to move forward beyond the Bois de^a^Pultiere.^ At 1 :00 
A.M. November 6th, while leading" the regiment along 
the Nantillois-Cunel road, same being under shell fire. 
Colonel T. Q. Ashburn was wounded.by the explosion 



REPORT OF OPERATIONS 45 

of a shell, but continued to lead the regiment into its 
position. The regiment remained in position until 
4:00 P.M. 9th November when it moved forward via 
Dun sur Meuse, closely supporting the 32nd infantry, and 
bivouacked along the road near Velosnes sur Meuse, 
between the Infantry advance guard and the main body. 
During the night bombing aeroplanes flew over the 
column, and there was intermittent artillery fire. 

At about 10:00 A.M. November 10th, the regiment 
moved forward, via Haraumont to the hills west of 
Ecurey and went into position under intense shell ^e. 
The enemy swept the road from Haraumont to Ecurey 
and the woods to the right (in which the regiment took 
position) in such a fashion that it was miraculous that a 
large percentage of men and guns were not lost. Leaving 
Velosnes, it had been impossible, due to exhaustion and 
lack of horses, to bring the second battalion in position. 
It was accordingly demobilized and all horses turned 
over to the first and third battalions. 

Orders having been given for attack on the morning of 
November 11th, the regiment went into action at 6:30 
A.M. and continued the attack until 7 :25 A.M., when I was 
directed to cease firing as an armistice had been declared. 
235 rounds of preparation and covering fire were delivered. 
Later in the morning I was ordered to deliver 8 rounds 
each on the following villages: Vittarville, Dombras, 
Delut and Dombley, as retaliation for enemy firing into 
Ecurey after the attack had been halted. This fire was 
delivered and completed at 10:25 A.M. and was as far 
as the undersigned is aware, the last shots fired delivered 
by any unit in the 32nd Division during the war. The 
regiment remained in bivouac in the Bois de Ecurey until 
2:00 P.M., November 16th, cleaning up, getting re- 
equipped, etc., when it started on the march to the 
Rhine, arriving at Jametz about 10:00 P.M. At 8:00 
A.M. the next day, it started to march to St. Jean, 
where the Regiment billeted for the night. From St. 
Jean the regiment marched to Villers la Chevres, France, 



46 HISTORY OF THE 324TH FIELD ARTILLERY 

where it remained in billets till the 19th, when it crossed 
the Luxembourg border and billeted at Petagne. From 
Petagne, the regiment marched to, and billeted at Kirch- 
burg, and thence via Romaine Strasse into Hostert, where 
it billeted. From Hostert, the regiment marched to 
Budeler and Bruch, where they were billeted in barns and 
such accommodations until December 1st, when it crossed 
into Germany over the Sauer River at Echternacht, 
about 11:00 A.M., billeting at Irrel, Germany. 

Up to the time the regiment reached Budeler and 
Bruch, Luxembourg, there had been, and continued to 
be, a serious shortage of rations for men, clothing, and 
forage for animals. From the time we entered Germany 
grain and forage could be requisitioned, and animals got 
enough to eat. The ration and clothing situation im- 
proved likewise, but I doubt if any heavy artillery had 
quite as strenuous a march, under such unfavorable con- 
ditions, as that made by this regiment. The march into 
Kirchburg was exceedingly trying, and at the end of it 
there was a tremendous steep hill to climb, and a very 
long one. The regiment did not negotiate it until early 
in the morning and the men bivouacked in the open, 
to a large extent. It was bitter cold, and horses and men 
suffered greatly. Going out of Hostert the road was 
almost straight down hill, and covered with ice. It was 
necessary to take all horses except one team, off each 
vehicle, to block the wheels with chains, and take as 
many men as could work on the guns and prolonges, to 
hold them back. Dozens of horses slipped and fell, 
(there were no calks in their shoes, nor could we get any), 
and several very serious accidents were narrowly averted. 

Leaving Irrel, Germany, the regiment proceeded to 
Ober and Nieder Stedem, where it bivouacked, leaving 
the next day at 8:00 A.M. via Bitberg and Erdorf, into 
Badem, over a road pronounced impracticable by the 
engineers, but negotiated by the regiment with less 
trouble than the one into Kirchburg, or out of Hostert. 
Remained two days billeted at Badem, and marched from 



REPORT OF OPERATIONS 47 

there to Manderscheid; arriving there 4th December 
about 11:00 P.M. Here was a march of about 35 kilo- 
meters, with a precipitous descent into a deep valley, and 
a climb out the other side at the end of a 30 kilometer 
march. A convoy of trucks, about 60, cut in ahead of 
the regiment via a crossroad forbidden to us, and con- 
tinued for hoiu's to slide off the road and delay us, requir- 
ing us at least six hours to negotiate a distance ordinarily 
covered in two hours. It was exceedingly dark and 
dangerous, owing to the abrupt hairpin curves, but the 
regiment arrived without accident. The next A. M. at 
8:00 the regiment moved through Daun and Dockwiler 
into Dreis, where it bivouacked; most of the men and all 
of the horses spending the night in the mud and the rain. 
The regiment left Dreis at 6:30 A.M. marching directly 
up a very steep and tiresome hill, arriving at its destina- 
tion, Kelberg, at 11:00 A.M. only to find it still occupied 
by parts of two regiments and an ammunition train. As 
soon as they cleared the regiment billeted, and remained 
there until 8 :00 A.M. the 9th December when it marched 
via Boos to Kurrenburg, where the regiment arrived in 
excellent shape. From Kurrenburg, the Regiment marched 
via Mayen to Ochtendung, Germany, where it billeted 
till December 13th, marching on that day via Bassenheim 
Reubenach, to Mulheim, where it billeted. At 8:00 A.M. 
December 14th the Regiment crossed the Rhine via the 
Crown Prince William Bridge, and the second and third 
battaUons billeted at Sayn, while the first marched on to 
Kleine Maischeid, and went into permanent billets, 
about 25 killometers north of Coblenz. 

On the 15th the second battalion proceeded to Brejtenau 
and the third to Ruscheid for permanent billets, while 
the Headquarters Company and Supply billeted at 
Kausen. 

These dispositions were maintained until December 
28th when conditions of overcrowding, and danger of 
disease became so acute that the following redistribution 
was made, remaining in effect up to the close of the year, 



48 HISTORY OF THE 324TH FIELD ARTILLERY 

1918: First Battalion and Battery B Kleine Maischeid, 
Supply Co., Kleine Maischeid; Regimental Headquarters, 
Headquarters Company and Battery A, Grosse Mais- 
cheid: Third Battalion Headquarters, Batteries E and 
F, remained at Ruscheid; D Battery moved to Kausen; 
Second Battalion Headquarters and Battery C, Breitenau. 

The billets are now comfortable and men better housed 
than at any time since we entered the line. 

Attention is invited to the fact that from the time this 
regiment started, September 23rd, 1918, to the cessation of 
war, November 11th, 1918, it was either actually on the 
firing line, marching to change positions, or in reserve 
under shell fire; that it never actually had 24 hours 
of that time even in comparative safety; and that it 
marched to the Rhine and across it, winning commenda- 
tion for both its fighting and marching ability wherever 
it was. Although the casualties were comparatively 
small, considering the task accomplished, the difficulties 
met and overcome, that was due, I firmly believe, largely 
to the preponderance and skill of our artillery; a large 
share of luck, and Divine protection. It will ever be a 
source of congratulation to everyone present that we were 
not annihilated in our positions at the Cote des Roches, 
east of the Meuse, where some of the bitterest fighting of 
the war occurred; and that we did not suffer severely at 
other places, especially in the Bois de Ecurey. The 
esprit of the regiment is unsurpassed and officers and men 
rest in the proud consciousness of duty well done.

but without descending into the valley of the Thinte. 

IV, Execution of the Attack: 

At the hour H, the artillery preparation and the 
departure of the infantry begins, speed of advance of 100 
meters in four minutes. There will be no rolling barrage, 
but fixed barrages applied on the strong points of the 
enemy's organization and lifting successively to allow 
the progression of the infantry, the infantry will close 
on the successive barrages. During the five minutes 
which precede each of the hours indicated in outline 
No. 1, these barrages are executed with smoke shells. 
On the hours indicated in the outline the barrages will 
lift, and the infantry will advance to the points covered 
by the next barrage.

Chapter II 
Plan for Accompanying and Covering the Attack 

1. Systems of Fire: 

The different systems of fire applying to the rate 
of progress are indicated on an attached tracing. 

As concerns the Field Artillery, a lifting of each 
system of fire will be preceded by a fire of five 
minutes' duration comprising a certain number of 
smoke shells mixed with other shells (one battery 
per battalion, or better, one gun per battery). 

2. Kind of Shells to be Used: 

(a) Field Artillery. The firing on the interior of 
woods will be executed with percussion shrapnel. 

A large proportion of time shrapnel will be used 
upon objectives other than trenches and dugouts. 

Instantaneous fuses will be reserved for fire beyond 
3500 to 4000 meters. 

At short ranges there will be the greatest possible 
use of reduced charge. 

(6) Heavy Artillery. The greatest part of the 
firing should be done with O. A. or F. A. with 
instantaneous fuses, or with shrapnel or cannister. 

Reserve the delay fuses for dugouts or P. C.'s; 
mix in, however, a certain number of shells with 
instantaneous fuses.
